Some of the uterine fibroid symptoms that may still persist after menopause include: 1  Pelvic pressure: You may continue to experience severe pain similar to cramps before a period.  Urinary urgency: If the fibroids are pushing on the bladder, it can cause you to have to urinate frequently.
If youâre in your late 40s you are also in what amounts to an âestrogen bath.â Right before menopause when estrogen is removed from the body as the ovaries stop functioning, women will experience several months to years of estrogen dominated menstrual cycles.

Waiting for âa few yearsâ for fibroids to shrink during menopause is likely to result in a few more years of growth and worsening symptoms of pain and bleeding instead.
